While India makes special exception for the UK to send urgent medicines during the COVID-19 crisis, British MPs want to debate Kashmir. This is ill-timed, ill-conceived and will damage UK-India relations, writes India Inc. Group Founder & CEO Manoj Ladwa. Next week, when the UK Parliament resumes after its Easter break, one of the first items on the order paper is a debate on Kashmir and the revocation of its historic “special status” by the Indian government. It has been [...]

Highlights: The diversity and scale of India’s economy make it an extremely resilient nation, giving it the capability to replace many of the Chinese supply chains. PM Modi has tapped into [...]

In light of US President Trump’s recent visit to India, an economic expert suggests some measures the two countries could take to drive their bilateral relationship to the next level. Highlights: President Trump’s reiteration of PM Modi’s policies reinforced the Indian Government’s assertion of successful outreach of its schemes. If a free trade agreement might not be an immediate possibility, a multi-layered trade agreement would help boost import-linked value-added manufacturing and exports from India. The US must consider that a [...]

India Inc. Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa reflects on the imperative for gender equality in leadership and the need to walk the talk on International Women’s Day. As I was walking through Dubai Airport this week, I was startled by a Standard Chartered advertisement which pointed out that only 6.6 per cent of women are CEOs of Fortune 500 companies and globally, we are still battling an average 32 per cent gender gap. These figures are woefully low for 2020 and International Women’s Day [...]

Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa. Highlights: India’s Department of Telecommunications' unreasonable demand of $21 billion from the country’s ailing telecom companies will cripple India's burgeoning telecom sector.

The coronavirus crisis should nudge the world towards some quick thinking to de-risk and diversify its bets, writes India Inc. Founder & CEO Manoj Ladwa. It’s official: the coronavirus outbreak in China is the world’s first “global health emergency” in this new era of major power rivalry. Besides the obvious cost in terms of human suffering and lives, it is already extracting a major economic cost across the world and is likely to have a major impact on the Indian [...]

US-China trade war and protectionism in the West, not India, dragging down global growth

Many economists feel that some green shoots of growth are visible within the Indian economy but it is best to wait for more widely dispersed signs of a turnaround before breathing a little easier. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has projected India to grow at 4.8 per cent this year, down sharply from the 6.1 per cent forecast in October 2019, and blamed it for dragging global growth down. Since India is the world’s fifth-largest economy in purchasing power parity [...]

For those who care about the India-UK relationship, democracy, stronger security, more business, and shared values for collective good, the question of who governs the UK should also matter. The choice on this count could not be starker, writes India Inc. Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa. In exactly a week’s time we will know who the victors and losers are in the UK general election. An election called by Prime Minister Boris Johnson in the hope of bringing finality and [...]
